This exceptional antique home is one of Killingworth's true gems and is hidden in plain sight! Lovingly transformed by a local master craftsman, the home showcases remarkable custom woodworking, handcrafted cabinetry, beautifully restored wide board flooring, tons of natural light and timeless architectural details. Your guests will be in awe~~this isn't your typical antique!! The custom kitchen with butcher block countertops and large windows open to the dining room with fireplace and library with bookcases and privacy doors. The stunning Great Room is the showpiece of the home, featuring walls of windows, cherry paneling, distinctive brick flooring, and a wood-burning fireplace creating an inviting atmosphere no matter the season. Offering three bedrooms and three full baths, the thoughtfully designed layout includes a private primary suite with vaulted ceilings. Outside, the property is equally impressive. An oversized detached barn offers versatility with a two-car garage, an artist's studio, and a heated and air-conditioned second-floor office-ideal for working from home, creative pursuits, or additional living space. The picturesque, level yard features established gardens, mature trees, a fenced meadow, a stone patio perfect for outdoor entertaining, and a paved circular driveway. Privately set yet conveniently located directly across from the Killingworth Library, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare combination of privacy, craftsmanship, and New England charm. While Killingworth residents enjoy the proximity to the coast, with easy access to major highways as well as train and airport services, the rural character of a small town shines through. This is more than a home-it's a place where history, artistry, and lifestyle come together in a truly unforgettable setting.
